ABSTRACT Ayurveda is regarded as the science of life since it tries to both preserve a person’s health and remedy their illnesses. For maintaining and achieving good health, we can find explanations of many concepts in Ayurveda, including Dinacharya (daily regimen), Ritucharya (night regimen), Sadvrittas (good conducts), Ahara Vidhi Visheshayatanas (rules and regulations regarding food intake), as well as Oushadha sevana kalas(time of administration of medicine), Matra nirdharana (dose fixation), etc. Several Acharyas, under the concepts of Ahara vidhi vidhana and Oushadha sevana kala, have mentioned ways such as the ingestion of Anupana (a postprandial drink) after the consumption of food or medicine. Anupana is a chemical that, when taken together with or after the consumption of food or medicine, improves the action to achieve the goal or to treat the ailment quickly and effectively. Anupana, in a nutshell, is any drink drunk after taking medication. In the context of Ahara, it aids in the distribution of food, softens, and moistens it, aiding in digestion and absorption as well as giving the body strength and stability. A physician must accurately identify the sick state to treat it with the appropriate drugs and Pathya-Apathya. Therefore, it is equally necessary to employ correct Anupana together with the right pharmacological therapy to treat the ailment. The effectiveness of various Anupanas for various types of drugs in certain sick situations is still being researched. As a result, this review article tries to explain Anupana in full as it is described in Ayurvedic classics, as well as its significance and the precautions that should be followed before consuming Anupana.
